How does Kensington Caviar Gel Effect top coat compare—in wear, drying time, etc.—to the original 45-Second Kensington Caviar top coat? I love the original and have used it for years, but I’m no longer finding it on the Sephora site. NAILS INC. - Gel Effect Top Coat with Kensington Caviar

Try putting cuticle oil on daily, especially if you keep your hands in water or any type of typing. I also take nail vitamins and my nails are now extremely long. I started wearing gel polish on top once they started to grow. To give them extra protection.

I am so disappointed that Sephora has stopped carrying Tom Ford nail lacquer. Whhhhhhhyyy? It was so convenient to order it through the app and get it delivered to the house! Anyone know why it was discontinued or know if it will make a comeback? I emailed customer service when I first realized a few months ago that the lacquers were gone, but just got a typical cookie cutter response back.

Hi @ElleDamarius,
We did discontinue the Formula X brand and many of the Sephora Collection Nail polish items like the nail polish remover. We are very sorry about that! I suggest checking out the #Deborah Lippmann The Stripper- Nail Polish Remover. Thanks!
Best Wishes,
Janean

My bad I'm still learning! So after multiple attempts at trying to figure out how to attach a screenshot (file size too big), I ended up going to a nail supply store and asking them. It's a practice nail tool, and I found some on Walmart.com and some on Etsy, both are magnetic and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your time though!!

Hi @stevie3,
You may want to recommend new colors that you think would look nice on her. Instead of red maybe burgundy etc. We also have some nice Deborah Lippmann nail polish sets available online and in stores that you can get her this holiday season. Hopefully that will encourage her to try new shades. I hope this helps.
Best,
Zakiya

@anjovi Look I don't want to tell you your nail salon is ripping you off....I've worked in the beauty industry 20+ years. Gel does not come in a powder form; it's called gel because it's in a liquid state. I've worked with CND, Shellac, Gellish, OPI. By what you're telling me, you're getting acrylic and gel ontop but being told and charged otherwise.

@LaurieNapps What a great thread! This brought back some nice memories for me. When I was in high school I used to do my nails every night before I went to bed - I'd sit in front of the TV and watch "Seinfeld" and it was my special "me" time. Years later, my friends would ask me if I still did my nails - they fondly remember seeing my new looks everyday. Even the prissy faculty complimented my nails! The craziest thing is, I haven't been into doing my nails since then. Maybe this will given me the motivation.

@corner79UnidentifiedI'd suggest posting this in the Play! by Sephora Group if you expect the Play! team to read it. Posting in the Nailed It Group is less likely to get their attention, since Play folks typically only check the Play group.

Since you first noticed in the postpartum period, I would ask your OBGYN to run some basic labs. There's lots of reasons for developing weak nails, like doing more "wet work" such as laundry and dishes, and using your nails as tools, like to crack open a can of soda. But a vitamin or mineral deficiency brought on by pregnancy or changes in metabolism because of thyroid problems can sometimes first show up as nail problems, and shouldn't be overlooked. That being said, I would recommend checking out the website of Dr. Dana. She's a dermatologist who specializes in weak, peeling nails. Or the book "Rescue Your Nails" by Ji Baek, who used to run Rescue Nail Lounge.
